Magnetic Separators

Superparamagnetic particles have been used extensively in diagnostics and other research applications for the isolation of cells and biomolecules such as antibodies, nucleic acids, and polypeptides. The biomagnetic separators available from Bangs accommodate a complete range of magnetic separation applications, including cell sorting, mRNA and DNA isolation, and the purification of proteins and protein complexes.

Our biomagnetic separators feature high-energy neodymium-iron-boron [Nd-Fe-B] magnets that ensure fast separation rates, excellent wall or well retention, and maximum yield. They are suitable for use with each of our magnetic particle lines.

1.5 mL Magnetic Separator

The 1.5 mL Magnetic Separator is a durable plastic magnetic separation unit designed to accommodate a standard 1.5 mL microcentrifuge tube for a complete range of magnetic separation applications, including cell sorting, mRNA and DNA isolation, and the purification of biomolecules. By placing the tube into the separator, our high energy neodymium-iron-boron [Nd-Fe-B] magnet will quickly draw superparamagnetic particles out of the solution. Once separation is complete, with particles firmly held to the wall, the supernatant may be removed. The 1.5 mL Magnetic Separator is simple and easy to use with most established bead protocols. See magnetizing force here.

BioMag® MultiSep Magnetic Separator

The BioMag® MultiSep Magnetic Separator accommodates three different tube sizes, which makes it a convenient and economical solution for processing magnetic microsphere samples. The MultiSep can be used with 50mL, 15mL, or 1.5mL centrifuge tubes for individual separations in a variety of applications.

96-Well Plate side pull Separator

The BioMag® 96-Well Plate Side Pull Separator is a durable magnetic separation unit designed to accommodate 96-well plates that allow the magnetic pins to fit between the individual wells. This separator allows particles to be pulled to the side of the walls, giving access to the bottom of the wells for more complete fluid removal and less chance of particle aspiration. The magnetic separator consists of 24 permanent neodymium-iron-boron rod magnets embedded in a plastic frame.

Flask Separator

The BioMag® Flask Separator is a 12.5cm x 6cm rectangular magnetic separation unit designed for use with tissue culture flasks. Test tubes may be used with this unit by securing tubes against the magnet with a rubber band (or by using one magnet on either side of the flask, as shown in the image to the left). The unit consists of permanent magnets enclosed in a plastic frame. The magnetic strength contained in each disc magnet is 27 megagauss Oersteads. Hurry!
